A little bit about me

ONLY AVAILABLE UNTIL 2/17/26, some days, mainly OVERNIGHT!
I have worked with children of various ages for over 20 years, and babies have always been my passion. There are few roles in the early childhood space that I haven’t held. I have been a mother’s helper, babysitter, nanny, preschool teacher, Chess at Three teacher, tutor, COO of a children’s transportation company, and a small business owner.
Over the last three years, I have honed my skill set to focus on children aged 24 months and under. This year, 2025, I decided to complete an advanced-level Newborn Care Specialist training.
Through my work with infants and toddlers, I have gained deep insight into their development, milestones, and needs, and I wanted to make an impact much earlier in the process.
I specialize in first time parents and love to use my teaching background to gently guide and support them in their journey. Their peace, comfort and confidence around being parents is a top priority in my work.

"It is my great privilege to recommend Shuri, she was the very first nanny we ever hired, and she exceeded every expectation we had while guiding our family through the early years of parenting with wisdom, patience, and kindness. From the very beginning, Shuri brought not only deep experience but also a calm confidence that immediately put us at ease as new parents. She helped us navigate countless transitions with our daughters—from moving to one nap, to shifting from formula to milk, to knowing when it was time to introduce new developmental skills. Shuri has worked with many different families and children, and it shows in her adaptability, patience, and intuition. Shuri is an exceptional communicator, safe, gentle, and incredibly thorough. She has been a steady, loving presence in our daughters’ lives, and I often describe her as their “third parent.” Our family has been deeply enriched by her care. I recommend her wholeheartedly and without reservation. *full reference can be sent"
